Villoglandular adenocarcinoma of the cervix is a rare type of cervical cancer that, in relation to other cervical cancers, is typically found in younger women and has a better prognosis. [1] A similar lesion, villoglandular adenocarcinoma of the endometrium, may arise from the inner lining of the uterus, the endometrium. [2]
Tubular adenomas (tube-like shape) are the most common of the adenomatous polyps; they may occur everywhere in the colon and they are the least likely colon polyps to develop into colon cancer; Tubulovillous; Villous adenomas are commonly found in the rectal area and they are normally larger in size than the other two types of adenomas.
The cause of CIN is chronic infection of the cervix with HPV, especially infection with high-risk HPV types 16 or 18. It is thought that the high-risk HPV infections have the ability to inactivate tumor suppressor genes such as the p53 gene and the RB gene, thus allowing the infected cells to grow unchecked and accumulate successive mutations, eventually leading to cancer.
Normal (left) versus dysplastic (large at right) colonic crypts, the latter conferring a diagnosis of a tubular and/or villous adenoma. Histopathology of high-grade dysplasia in a tubulovillous adenoma, in this case seen mainly as loss of cell polarity, as cells become more plump and haphazard than the elongated and parallel nuclei of ...
Low to high grade dysplasia [13] Over 75% of volume has tubular appearance. [14] Tubulovillous adenoma: 20% to 25% [15] 25–75% villous [14] Villous adenoma: 15% [16] to 40% [15] Over 75% villous [14] Sessile serrated adenoma (SSA) [17] Basal dilation of the crypts; Basal crypt serration; Crypts that run horizontal to the basement membrane ...
Cervical cancer is a type of gynecological cancer that begins from cells lining the cervix, the lower part of the uterus. [14] Cervical cancer begins when the cells that line the cervix become abnormal and grow in a pattern that is atypical for non-cancerous cells. [14] Cervical cancer is typically first identified with an abnormal pap smear. [14]
Even though it was once thought to no longer occur past the age of 30, it is still seen in the 40s and 50s. Some of the main signs and symptoms for clear-cell adenocarcinoma of the vagina are spotting between menstrual cycles, bleeding post-menopause, abnormal bleeding, and malignant pericardial effusion or cardiac tamponade.

There is high-certainty evidence that HPV vaccines protect against precancerous cervical lesions in young women, particularly those vaccinated aged 15 to 26. [158] HPV vaccines do not increase the risk of serious adverse events. [158] Longer follow-up is needed to monitor the impact of HPV vaccines on cervical cancer. [158]
